Tees Aggregates²³

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: J Garritty| T: Adrian Nicholls| OR: 70| CD

6/1

Capitalised on a falling mark when scoring over C&D in June. Has found things tougher back up in grade both starts since, also poorly drawn when down the field at York 23 days ago. No surprise to see him bounce back returned to this level here.

Emperor's Son^h⁴⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: Joanna Mason| T: Samantha & Jacqueline Coward| OR: 70| D

12/1

Successful twice this year, building on the promise of his return to turf when making all at Hamilton (6f) in June. Found things tougher up in grade when last of 10 at Newmarket 6 weeks ago, but drawn widest here on first run since leaving Richard & Peter Fahey. Hood back on.

Our Absent Friends³

Age: 8| Weight: 9-13| J: D Allan| T: T Davidson| OR: 69| CD

4/1

Turned out again after 2 days off and justified strong support when scoring over this C&D in July. Well held in a class 4 at Thirsk 3 days ago, but this should be more suitable.

Age: 6| Weight: 9-12| J: D Fentiman| T: T D Easterby| OR: 68| D

6/1

Has proved as good as ever this year, winning 3 times with the latest at Hamilton in June. Lesser effort in a higher grade at Thirsk 16 days ago, but she could fare better back in class 5 company.

Staniel Cay⁹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: O J Orr| T: Grant Tuer| OR: 66| BF| D

11/2

Much improved on second handicap start when winning 17-runner contest at Nottingham in April. Only third of 5 at Yarmouth next time, but it still remains early days for him. Off 3 months (has been gelded) ahead of first run since leaving Kevin Philippart de Foy.

Form: 44-5413

Invincible Crown¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: T Eaves| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 58| D

11/1

Confirmed promise of previous couple of runs when winning at Musselburgh in June. Made the frame in a stronger race over this C&D next time, but needs to bounce back from a lesser effort at Nottingham 2 weeks ago.

Form: 742144

(5)

Irish Dancer^t²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-0| J: Zak Wheatley| T: D Carroll| OR: 56| CD

5/1

Winner over C&D in May, landing the race for the second year in succession. Places 3 times since, wasting no time bouncing back from a below-par run when third of 9 at Thirsk 24 days ago. Enters calculations from only 1 lb above last winning mark.

Form: 182383

(3)

Cheerleader²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: A Mullen| T: Miss T Jackson| OR: 54| CD

7/1

Successful at 66/1 on yard debut at Redcar last spring and proved that no fluke when following up over C&D. Has worked her way back to form this season, close third of 6 at Ripon 3 weeks ago, so she merits consideration off the same mark as when winning here last year.

Form: 728-943

Forecasts

Staniel Cay (5/1), Cheerleader (6/1), Betweenthesticks (6/1), Tees Aggregates (7/1), Beaumadier (8/1), Canaria Queen (8/1), Invincible Crown (10/1), Our Absent Friends (10/1), Miss Brazen (10/1), Irish Dancer (10/1), Emperor's Son (14/1)

Preference is for TEES AGGREGATES, who won here in June and is well worth another chance after running in class 4 company both starts since. Returned to this grade, he gets the vote ahead of another C&D winner this season Irish Dancer, with Cheerleader also considered from her last winning mark.
